2 What is Corn Used For?

3 Corn Problems Susceptible to disease and pests Requires a specific temperature range Requires a specific amount of water (1-2in/week) Must be grown by experienced growers Growers need infrastructure to grow & harvest

4 Temperature Pattern Reference of 1961 to 1991

5 Most of Arable Land Have Been Used

6 There’s Very Little Farmland Left

7 Farmland Is Degraded

8 NuCorn Tech Solutions Genetic hybrid was made using genes from desert plants. Allows roots to grow laterally & vertically. Optimized for maximum immunity to pests NuCorn Tech corn requires less water and tolerates higher temperatures

9 Current Market

11 Market Share Cont.

12 Gap Between Supply and Demand is Widening

13 Operations NuCorn Tech is located in the rural outskirts of Phoenix Arizona. Facility is 25 acres including the fields and processing facility Fields are mechanically harvested by tractors

14 Manufacturing Process Genes extracted through biotech proceses Genes of desired nature are spliced into corn genome Final genome is transplanted into a premature seed New variant is grown and harvested for sale
